It’s always weird to watch film journalists try to make movie openings interesting.

Out of the gate, Illumination/Universal’s The Super Mario Galaxy Movie already is breaking records with a $34M Wednesday

This is seriously so silly.

it’s also the best opening Wednesday in April, beating 2023’s The Super Mario Bros Movie, which brought in $31.7M

Oh ok so a whole three years ago; the same series. What a record! Pop the champagne

The movie will join ShrekToy Story and Minions as the only animated franchises to have two titles open to more than $100M for three days at the domestic box office

Whoa, the most successful animated movies are the ones where people have to pay for their kids?! No way…

    I was gonna say that. Watching the NBA is like, "this is the FIRST time a player has scored 25 points while wearing white shoes on Christmas day while their uncle was in the hospital!"
